Such Quiet Girls
Noelle W. Ihli

One hijacked bus. Ten frightened children. A deadly race against the clock . . .

Jessa, the newest driver of school bus 315, is desperate for her first week to go smoothly, otherwise the lies on her job application risk being uncovered. Meanwhile, twelve-year-old Sage is itching to get home after another exhausting day of watching over her little sister, Bonnie, at her mum's request.

But disaster strikes when their bus is hijacked in broad daylight. For Jessa, Sage and the other nine innocent souls onboard, the nightmare is only just beginning...

Trapped inside a shipping container buried 20 feet underground, the captives are promised they will be freed once a ransom is paid to the hijackers. But Jessa and Sage aren't sure they'll last that long. It’s dark and cramped, the younger kids are panicking and it’s becoming harder to breathe.

With time – and air – running out, can they team up to outsmart their captors? Or are they doomed to an unthinkable fate?
